Free 'Consider the Source' e-book

Throughout the 2012 election season, reporters for the Center for Public Integrity’s Consider the Source project provided continuous coverage on the mystery groups that poured nearly $1 billion into state and federal races.

We authored more than a dozen investigative stories, profiled the top 25 “super donors” to the election spending groups known as super PACs and explained the complexity behind the U.S. Supreme Court decision that made it such an unusually expensive election.

We have gathered the best of our election coverage into an e-book, complete with links, just for you.
